Threw you away


You were there for me

You stood up for me

But what did I do?

I threw you away

 

I was so lost 

and never knew what you meant

until I threw you away

and was left alone to face the world

 

you were my everything

you gave me everything

but when you asked me for something

I threw you away

 

every single word you said

now it hunts me in my nightmare

Since the day you left

I realized I am not my self

 

I do not even have the courage

to ask you to come back

to ashamed of my my self

because I threw the precious you away.
